Nintendo to start WiiWare demo test
GoNintendo —
... crap…Nintendo might actually be getting with the times! In their investor question and answer session, Satoru Iwata announced that Nintendo will run a test WiiWare demo service that will offer demos for select games. This test will take place to see if WiiWare sales can be raised, and to gain more attention for the service. No word on this test coming stateside at this time. Thanks to DSkartmasta and TheKingUpNorth for the heads up!

During the recent investor Q&A session, Satoru Iwata announced plans to begin rolling out demos for a small selection of WiiWare games this month. He didn't say which region or regions would receive this service, so let's assume it's just Japan.

Nintendo to Offer WiiWare Demos

... saying that Nintendo is going to launch a test program to release WiiWare demos later this month. There will only be a few titles at first, but I would assume if it’s successful, we will see a lot more of them! I think it’s definitely a step in the right direction for Nintendo. And who knows, maybe this will eventually lead to Nintendo offering downloadable Wii demos? I’ve been wanting to try out the new LostWinds, so this may be the perfect opportunity.

Nintendo to release WiiWare demos as test
WiiNintendo —
... start using the Wii Shop Channel. Iwata doesn’t think demos will help much, but Nintendo is going to try it anyways.
Keep in mind though that this was just mentioned by Iwata and there was no official announcement with a press release or anything, so we don’t have the full details. There’s a chance it could only be for Japan, and we don’t have an official start date aside from sometime this month. Hopefully we’ll get more details soon.
